Harry Potter goodies

Our friend H, who was Z's librarian and is now a librarian at a big library in Indiana, sent us some goodies from their book seven release event. I had seen pictures and the release party looked amazing! Here are the goodies she sent us.

a several page version of the Daily Prophet. Z read it all today


A version of Mrs. Weasley's clock. I can't wait to make this project.


Also a lightning bolt sticker, a Marauder's Map and two S.P.E.W. badges


Of course Z had to dress up in her Harry/Hermione cloak, witches hat and glasses.


Recently Z has been reading some kids books, like Spiperwick and Bunnicula. We also listened to The Indian in the Cupboard. That story was great! I highly recommend it. We are also listening to The Mouse and the Motorcycle. I remember liking that when I was little but not so much now. Indian in the Cupboard is better. I also read Spiderwick. I was okay. The first book is not a whole story in and of itself so I will have a read the next one to see if I like it.

For bedtime Z asked me to go back to reading Robin Hood. At one point we were singing a song as Frair Tuck and Robin. It was great fun!

Update on the house hunting...

We found a house. We made an offer. They made an counter offer. We accepted. Now we are just waiting to sign stuff. Once it is all a done deal I will post pictures. :)
